Both main event bouts will air live on SHOWTIME as the network concludes a robust 2017 boxing campaign that will have featured 22 بطولة العالم تحارب, 16 bouts matching fellow undefeated fighters, three world title unifications, three world title rematches and the emergence of three bright young stars (ايرول سبنس الابن, Gervonta Davis and David Benavidez) as they earned their first world titles.

 

With the addition of Joshua vs. بوليف, four of the consensus top-five heavyweights in the world will compete on SHOWTIME in consecutive weeks. جوشوا مقابل. Pulev and Wilder vs. Ortiz will be the ninth and 10عشر heavyweight world championship bouts to air live on SHOWTIME in the last two years.

 

“There’s so much to be excited about in the sport of boxing, and it all comes to a fever pitch on consecutive Saturdays this fall on SHOWTIME,"وقال ستيفن اسبينوزا, نائب الرئيس التنفيذي والمدير العام لشوتايم الرياضية. “This has been a great year for boxing. More specifically, it has been a great year for SHOWTIME boxing. There’s no better way to end it than with two major heavyweight world championship events. We are proud to be in business with the two biggest punchers in the sport, Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder, and the rest of the talented and hungry heavyweight challengers of today.”

 

جوشوا, the undefeated British superstar (19-0, 19 كوس), exploded onto the world stage in April when he defeated heavyweight legend Wladimir Klitschko via a spectacular come-from-behind knockout. In the year’s leading Fight of the Year candidate, a bout that aired live on SHOWTIME, Joshua picked up the vacant WBA heavyweight title to go along with his IBF belt. الآن, Joshua returns to take on the top-ranked IBF challenger in Pulev (25-1, 13 كوس) في 70,000 seat national stadium in Wales.

 

جوشوا, 27, has remarkably knocked out all of his opponents since turning pro shortly after winning gold in the 2012 الألعاب الأولمبية. The Watford, England native won his first title with a second-round KO of defending IBF Heavyweight Champion Charles Martin in April 2016, earning a heavyweight belt in the fewest number of fights in more than 20 سنوات. He has since successfully defended the title three times – against Dominic Breazeale in June of 2016, Eric Molina in December and Klitschko in April.

 

بوليف, صوفيا, بلغاريا, will be making his second attempt at winning the IBF world championship, having lost to Klitschko in his first try in November 2014. بعد ذلك, his lone loss, Pulev quickly rebounded and became a two-time European champion with a win over Dereck Chisora. He also holds wins over two former world title foes of Klitschko in Samuel Peter and Kevin Johnson.

 

جوشوا مقابل. Pulev is promoted by Matchroom Sport. Fewer than 200 tickets remain on sale viawww.StubHub.co.uk priced at £300.
